Victoria vs Coupe measurements

[panhead_pete]

Does anyone have a source for dimensions of 30/31 coupes and 30/31 Victorias. In particular Im trying to ascertain if they differ in overall length from B pillar back to the leading edge of the fender or maybe even the length of the doors would give me what i need? In the images on the macs page below it appears the Vicy might be a shorter section between the rear wheel than the coupe. Can anyone confirm?

Thanks Badpuppy links worked for me, it was helpful!


From those drawings it appears a 30 coupe door is 26 7/8" long? Anyone know how long a Victoria door is and doesnt appear on those drawings?



Cheers

I measured from the face of the "B" Pillars to the forward edge of the stainless cowl bands on my 45B and 190A. Actual measurements:

"B" Pillar to Cowl Band 40"(45B); 46"(190A)
"B" Pillar to CL Rear Axle 34"(45B); 26.5" (190A)
Door Width @ Belt Rail 27.5" (45B); 33.5" (190A)

Thanks Bob! Wow 6" is more than I thought it may be looking at images on the internet etc. Appreciate you taking the time to go measure your cars. Cheers.

I think Vickeys have the widest front doors of any of the models.


The Deluxe 2 door Phaeton and the A 400 also may have wide doors.

The 190A and 400A have the same doors.

The Victoria drawing doesn't show width of door, but the Convertible Sedan (same door) drawing shows the width at 33". Pretty much confirms Bob Bidonde's measurements - the slight differences may be due to exactly where on the doors the measurements were taken.
